Lennon is stretching this out to long if he is looking elsewhere maybe it's time the Tiges use him to try and secure someone maybe Aish ?

While it's somewhat disappointing, I would be happy to have Yarran and Townsend at the club, big fan of the latter. Similar player to Miles who has been a good get. Townsend's got the potential to be a Dan Jackson type for us. Another strong body in the contest that can get in there and win it.

I still reckon we have need a dangerous small forward but it doesn't seem like the club sees that as an issue. They must be happy having Sam Lloyd as a medium sized and Shane Edwards moving between the forward line and mdifield.

That's been my hope all along with the talk of recruiting Yarran, but in the article above Dan Richardson identifies the need for a rebounding defender and labels Yarran as that player.

I'm still hoping Jason Castagna can turn into that rebounding defender for us, showed some good signs in his first season. Maybe if he grows into that role and we do get Yarran then Yarran will be moved forward.

If Yarran and Townsend are the best we can hope to get that would make for a pretty disappointing trade period , I think I would be hoping some of our young guys could take the next step up than relying on those 2

Isn't Townsend just another THunt type?

Townsend is basically a less good version of JZ. Hunt is just absolute shower.

I can see the JZ comparison .. agree with the less good version
